Open Border NGOs face fresh child abuse allegations
The NGO Save the Children, which was last year accused of working with human trafficking gangs smuggling migrants into Europe, has been exposed as yet another charity behind raping children in need.

An International Development Committee investigation has revealed how children were abused by men at peacekeeping camps run by the NGO.
Corinna Csáky, a child development consultant investigated allegations of child abuse by “humanitarians” and peacekeepers in 2008 for Save the Children. A young girl in Haiti explained how “the people who are raping us and the people in the office are the same people,” she said.
The majority of abuse goes unreported because victims are “scared of retaliation,” Csáky said. Both local and international aid workers were involved in the sexual exploitation of children.
Despite numerous appeals, the NGO failed to investigate claims of sexual misconduct by staff including former chief executive Justin Forsyth and former policy director Brendan Cox — widow of the late Jo Cox.
MPs investigating found perpetrators preying on the most vulnerable, with victims often existing “outside the system” — those children most in need since they were not on any register for schooling, humanitarian aid nor other services.
Italian television programme Matrix reported how staff from Save the Children were cooperating with people traffickers.The television programme, hosted on Italian network Canale 5, released footage of how people smugglers helped migrants get to a ship chartered by Save the Children, the Vos Hestia, off the coast of Libya.
Last year, the George Soros-funded charity Mercy Corps, was accused of sex abuse by Greek authorities.
Sex abuse and misconduct were also reported at the Austria-based children’s charity SOS Children’s Villages and French Doctors Without Borders in the wake of the Oxfam abuse scandal. British charity Oxfam was reeling on Tuesday after fresh claims of sexual assault and rape, this time concerning their aid workers in South Sudan.
A survey of 120 Oxfam staff across three countries found that at least 14 percent said they had witnessed or experienced sexual assault.
In February this year, the UK’s Charity Commission launched a statutory inquiry into Oxfam because it did not “fully and frankly disclosed” all details about allegations in Haiti. The charity’s deputy chief executive, Penny Lawrence, resigned, saying she was “desperately sorry”.
The European commission, which provided almost as much funding as the UK government last year, said: “We are ready to review and if needed cease funding any partner who is not living up to the required high ethical standards.”
Their UK government funding bids have been suspended as a result of the controversy. Oxfam announced that it expects income this year to decrease by more than £67 million.
Victims from Haiti, South Sudan and the Ivory Coast were questioned, with one father remarking that aid workers who abused children “did not even hide what they are doing”.
While celebrated for their “good deeds” done to others, NGO professionals instead seem to be more interested in doing “good” for themselves. They move between NGOs, academia and political appointments, while enjoying a culture of impunity while they exercise power over the poorest. The Lancet once described NGOs in Haiti as “polluted by unsavoury characteristics”.
Charities thrive on the poor, not on ending poverty.

NOAA Predicts Zero Sunspots for Almost the Whole 2030s
CLIMATEThe United States' government scientific organization, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), predicts zero sunspots from 2031 to 2040. This is an extreme situation that has not occurred in as long as humanity has been counting sunspots, and it leads us into uncharted territory in terms of our solar system. However, this prediction aligns with the warnings of the world-renowned solar researcher Valentina Zharkova for many years, who indicated in 2019 various signs of this catastrophic phenomenon, including the extreme hailstorms we have seen in Europe and the world this summer. The forecast and various observations this year give cause for very significant concern. In this unique analysis, Free West Media explains why.
European Nationalist Parties Forge Cooperation Ahead of EU Elections
EUROPEAN ELECTIONSOn Saturday, August 26, representatives of six European nationalist parties gathered in Budapest. The meeting was initiated by the Hungarian party Mi Hazánk and took place in the national parliament. Representatives of the parties signed a joint declaration that not only reaffirms the parties' friendship but also their unity on a range of complex political issues. A surprisingly clear and radical manifesto was established. The hope is that this cooperation will lead to success in the EU elections and eventually result in the formation of a group in the European Parliament. For Swedish nationalism, this meeting marks a success as Sweden, for the first time, has a party represented in a leading nationalist cooperation in Europe. Free West Media was present at this historic event.

Swedish Weapon Takes Down Russia’s Best Attack Helicopter
The Russian attack helicopter Ka-52 is considered one of the world's best and has struck fear in Ukraine, where it has hunted down tanks and other armored vehicles, often beyond the range of many light anti-aircraft systems.

The Sun Drives Earth’s Climate, Not Carbon Dioxide
Top Researchers Push Back Against Climate Lies."The correlation is as clear as day," explained the Israeli astrophysicist Nir Shaviv, who was hailed by the establishment, before his interview with Forbes was hastily deleted. What he says contradicts the climate narrative, which points to humans as responsible for Earth's climate. Shaviv firmly asserts that it is the sun that controls the climate, something that can be scientifically proven in many ways. Contrary to the popular belief, the sun's influence on Earth has, in recent years, caused unusually cold and rainy weather, a trend that solar researchers warn will worsen significantly in the coming decades. The sun has exhibited an unusually low activity since 2016, during Solar Cycle 24, which was the weakest in a century.
Strong Confidence in German AfD
Alternative for Germany (AfD) held a party conference on July 29-30 to select candidates for the upcoming EU election next year. EU Parliament member Maximilian Krah, belonging to the party's more radical, ethnonationalist faction, was appointed as the top candidate. The party's two spokespersons delivered powerful speeches criticizing the EU's failed migration policy and trade sanctions that isolate Europe and Germany from the rest of the world. They argued that it's time for the EU to return a significant portion of its power to national parliaments. However, they have dropped the demand for Germany to exit the EU.
